this deserves a video at the end.

Given we have AROS, that is mostly AmigaOS compatible and has an ARM port, and that also has a classic Amiga port, it'd be fun to see the ARM version of AROS ported to this...

So the Amiga is a graphics card for Doom running on the Pi. Can we make that general purpose? Does Linux still have Amiga drivers?

Would it be possible (and/or a good idea...) to calculate the best HAM approximation of the frame, rather than an EHB version?

The way HAM works, a pixel can be either one of only 16 colours, or the colour of the pixel to the left and change one component: red, green or blue.

Back in the day, I used a program that loaded GIFs in 256 colours and converted them to HAM. The resulting images had lots of edge artefacts, and that is what I would expect out of that too.

Like a Vampire but with honest intentions. It accepts it is wearing the Amiga as a hat.
